⋔ Knitting with Multiple Strands
This yarn is used in a single thread for Sport Weight, but can be doubled for a heavier gauge:
• 2 Threads: Creates a DK/Light Worsted weight yarn with an approximate yardage of 225m (246yd) per 100g.
✦ Recommendations for Weaving
This yarn is primarily recommended for weft in woven fabrics. Its luxurious softness, halo, and warmth make it an ideal choice for high-end accessories like scarves and shawls, lending an exquisite texture to the cloth.
⌁ Recommended Needles & Hooks (Based on Single-Thread Knitting)
• For knitting with one thread (creating a Sport weight), we recommend 3.5–4.0 mm (US 4–6) needles. The general gauge is 24–26 stitches per 4 inches (10 cm) in stockinette stitch. Use the smaller end of the range (3.5mm) for a denser, more structured fabric, and the larger end (4.0mm) for a softer, fluffier drape.
• For crochet, use hooks in the range of 3.5–4.0 mm (E-4 to G-6).
